Another build day lost

yodameister · #1 28-01-2009, 14:50

*sigh* snow in the Northeast has caused another snow day resulting in a whole build day lost. Anybody else lose days due to snow/cold?

GillSt.Bernards · #2 28-01-2009, 14:52

Yes we do. My school since it is a private school has a lot of snow days. We take people from all over New Jersey and some from New york, We have already had 5 snow days and 3 during the building process

I went with the first option because we have not lost any days due to weather, but here in MN I most certainly know what snow is. We work at a building across the street from the school so when school is out due to weather we can actually start early (or at least we could while I was on winter break to be a supervising mentor).

Snow? What is that?

Lucky for Florida, build season is not during hurricane season!

Hurricane season would be torture, at least in snow you can lock the doors and know the robot is safe.

For Northern Virginia we just had our first snow day today.

IndySam · #8 28-01-2009, 15:23

Our first day of the year. 12.5 inches of snow here.

We have lost the last 2 days because of snow in St. Louis. We have recently installed January 32 and 33 as official days in our calendar.

No snow here...but two weeks ago school was cancelled due to highwind advisory (up to 60mph winds). Fortunatly it didn't materialize.

Where did you measure that? I'm in Indy and just measured 8.5 inches.

We only meet three days each week. Can I pretend that all the rest are snow days?

Akash Rastogi · #13 28-01-2009, 15:44

Today is our 3rd lost day.

Back in the day we used to just break into school and break locks....admin didn't take too kindly to that...

Stupid snow.

2 days for me. 1 for the rest of the team (I am burried in worse than the rest of them)

We lost 3 days so far – 1 day due to a water main break and 2 days due to snow!
